                          LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM

  (Mr. HOYER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. HOYER. Mr. Speaker, I yield to my friend, the majority leader, 
for purposes of inquiring of the majority leader the schedule for the 
coming day and weekend.
  Mr. CANTOR. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman, the Democratic whip, 
and refer him to the announcement that came out from my office that we 
intend for the Senate to act on the continuing resolution sometime 
today and to receive it here in the House either this afternoon or 
evening.
  As per the announcement that we sent out, the House will meet at 10 
a.m. for morning-hour tomorrow on Saturday, at noon for legislative 
business, and Members are advised that we could vote at any point 
tomorrow or Sunday until the situation surrounding the CR is resolved.
  Mr. HOYER. I thank the gentleman for his comments.
  Would it be safe to tell the Members there will be no votes before 1 
o'clock tomorrow, do you think?
  Mr. CANTOR. Mr. Speaker, I would respond to the gentleman, yes, that 
would be correct.
  Mr. HOYER. I thank the gentleman.
  Does the gentleman intend to meet on Sunday if we have acted on the 
CR tomorrow?
  Mr. CANTOR. Mr. Speaker, I would say to the gentleman about Sunday's 
schedule, pending action tomorrow, I am hesitant to commit that there 
would be no votes on Sunday. I do know, Mr. Speaker, that we're dealing 
with a day of worship for many people, and would work with that fact as 
well, if that's the purpose of his question.
  Mr. HOYER. I thank the gentleman for his response, and I yield back 
the balance of my time.
